Those meme-lovin' folk over at Oxford Dictionary have named the emoji "Face with Tears of Joy" as their Word of the Year.
Oxford Dictionaries Word of the Year 2015 is… 😂! https://t.co/LjJyxO8cvv #OxfordWOTY
Lots of people think they got it wrong so here are the ~words~ they SHOULD have picked instead.
16. Face With No Good Gesture
Pretty much how everyone felt when Oxford Dictionary made their announcement.
15. Smirking Face
Probably how the judges from Oxford looked after making their decision. Choosing the smirk instead is the least they could have done.
14. Bug
Nawwww, how can you be mad when a furry little caterpillar is staring back at you NO WAIT OXFORD BLEW THIS AND SHOULD HAVE SOOTHED US ALL WITH THIS SELECTION.
13. Speak-No-Evil Monkey
This cheeky li'l mate is the cute response for all your foot in mouth needs. Like, for example, announcing the Face With Tears Of Joy emoji as the Word of 2015.
12. Dancer
Look at all the fucks dancer lady has to give. You see that? NONE. She doesn't care about you Oxford. Salsa away!
11. Women With Bunny Ears
Two for the price of one Oxford, seriously.
10. Smiling Face With Horns
You had one job! Pick a horny emoji for the enjoyment of us all... but you failed.
9. Money With Wings
The international symbol for "When the fuck is pay day and why does adulting suck so much?" would have been a perfect pick.
8. Reversed Hand With Middle Finger Extended
Self-explanatory really. How could Oxford flip the bird to this emoji?
7. Pile Of Poo
No buts about it, the pile of poo would have been a natural choice. Maybe it came in second on Oxford's list?
6. Unicorn Face
Getting straight to the point, unicorns are awesome and Oxford blew it.
5. Cheese Wedge
After what felt like an eternity, Apple finally listened to the masses and wheeled out a cheese wedge. Can you Brie-lieve it got snubbed?
4. Splashing Sweat Symbol
"Splashing Sweat Symbol"... yeah, right. We all know what this is used for and how it could have be glorified in 2015 but, alas, it wasn't.
3. New Moon With Face
Sliding into someone's DMs - New Moon With Face.
Awkwardly watching a Twitter fight go down - New Moon With Face.
Seeing Oxford Dictionary announce Face With Tears Of Joy as their 2015 Word of the Year - New Moon With Face.
2. Upside-Down Face
Let's be real, if you had to pick one emoji to use for the rest of your life you'd probably pick upside-down face.
1. Eggplant
Well this is nothing but an innocent eggplant chilling out and being banned on Instagram for unknown reasons which makes it a perfect choice for Word of the Year. Sort your shit out Oxford Dictionary, retract your decision and choose the people's emoji.
